    Allocate matching yarn lots to project meter requirements in input order, tracking remaining stock and shortages. The example is illustrative and can be replaced.

    Know what you are comparing

    How is yarn compatibility determined?

    Only an exact compatibility-group label is used. Fiber, gauge, dye lot and pattern suitability must be checked separately before combining yarns.

    Files, privacy & saving

    Calculations run locally in a browser worker. Input CSV files use the column names in the downloadable template and keep your current settings. Projects restore inputs and up to four scenarios. Imports are limited to 1 MiB and 100 entries. There is no automatic saving. Public pages include advertising and optional analytics; see our privacy policy.

    CSV exports contain the entire selected table. JSON and printable HTML reports include all result tables; open the report and use your browser’s Print command for PDF.
